sound manager/export sound lists
Why can't I export sound lists from sound manager. The command is greyed out which the manual states is because that function is not available with certain models. I have an Electro 3. I don't understand how that would have any bearing on exporting an .html file to my computer. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Jim.

Re: sound manager/export sound lists
That's #2 on my wish list. #1 is to just SEE the patch settings. Sound Manager does not need to be an editor, nor do I have to see real-time changes; I just want to know what the parameter settings are for the current saved patches. I have EQ settings that I cannot always replicate, and want to know what they are for future reference.
But I agree. I would like to export the patch and sample lists to a text or PDF file.

Re: sound manager/export sound lists
So, I am correct in that, the sound manager will not export sound lists? I really can't understand why. Seems like a very basic function. Oh well, still love Nord products, I can deal with the quirks!!Rusty Mike wrote:That's #2 on my wish list. #1 is to just SEE the patch settings.

Re: sound manager/export sound lists
I just wanted to share with everybody that I just found out about Sound Lists. Currently it is a nice feature in the Nord Sound Manager which exports an .html of all the sounds you have. I find that to be extremly useful to share, say, the list of samples I use, or if I want to do backups, instead of using up a lot of space and time, I just get the list to remember which samples I have.
You find the feature under File>Export Sound List. It makes 4 HTMLs: Piano, Program, Synth and Sample. For example, I have put a .zip with the lists generated. The program does not zip them, i had to since the forum will not allow attaching .html files
I was trying to get all factory stuff back up, since I erased everything and just had my own, but I wanted to try out all of them presets. Which I previously could not due to the fact that I erased the samples, but I wanted to remember which samples I had. Since there is no way to load massively samples besides a full backup, I needed to do a list of those, but as I browsed the Sound Manager I noticed the Sound Lists feature, tried it out and turned out to be just what I wanted.

Yes it would be a very nice feature except that it doesnt work with the Electro and I'm not sure why it doesn't .

Re: sound manager/export sound lists
It's grayed out on my E3 also. I was thinking that I overlooked something, that there MUST be a way to export sound/preset/ sample lists. Apparently, not so.jorr92 wrote:Yes it would be a very nice feature except that it doesnt work with the Electro and I'm not sure why it doesn't .
A clunky workaround that I used is to do screen captures of each individual screen, then paste them into a word processing document like MS Word. The print is small to read, so zooming in works ok. Clunky, but at least it's something
Each operating system has it's own method of doing screen captures, and there's info readily available on the internet.

That's a great idea, I was also thinking of taking a pic with my iPad and having it there!
